One day I'll be wiser and not older, but today I am older but not wiser

So due to a combination of events beyond my control* and my own slightly awkward nature**, I just had the most awkward birthday dinner I've ever had. It was still fun and tasty, though.

*Note: if you have a birthday dinner for someone, telling them beforehand helps.
**If the ratio of extroverted to introverted people in a room is greater than one, I'm generally perfectly fine. If the ratio is less than one, however, I don't fare so well.

I'm a little bit late, but happy birthday!

I can relate on the whole birthday dinner thing. I hope the surprise was pleasant, at least. Am I to assume that your birthday dinner was unusually awkward due to the flux of introverted people?

Either way, I hope you enjoyed it thoroughly! :)

Thanks! I did enjoy myself. And the awkwardness was because I didn't know about it so I left work and so some of the other more extroverted people thought the dinner was canceled and didn't come and so it was more a loss of extroverted people then an influx of introverted people.

Oh, I see! Glad to hear you had fun, though. :)

Happy Birthday!! (I'm late as well. Oops)

If the dinner was tasty, that's what counts. That means there was love behind it. Even if it was awkward...

The deliciousness made up for it, right? Right.

(Jupitrie: Lives in Italy right now. Where EVERY dinner is awkward but delicious)

Thanks! The deliciousness ALWAYS makes up for it. :)
